Pwede kaya i-retro sa earlier version ang coils and dampers neto?

I'm sure pwede... pero magpapalit ka na lang din, why not get better after market parts?

True

Medyo bouncy kasi stock suspension lalo na kung walang sakay sa likod.

Yeah, sulit na.
Around 14k odo and I got the Amaron Pro 1SM as I read a lot of good reviews online.

So far so good!

Our garage queen XV's AC system is now blowing hot air after barely 4 years and 15k kms of ownership tsk.

I noticed na medyo hilaw ang lamig the past few days pero inisip ko baka mainit lang talaga panahon. Yesterday while I was driving it to our offsite parking area biglang puro hangin na lang walang lamig. Didn't hear the compressor turn on so most likely out of freon due to a leak. Didn't smell anything unusual inside the cabin so I hope it's not the evaporator.

It's just a leak ... normally, you'd want to clean and replace the gaskets every year or two ...

in a generic auto aircon,
leak. out of freon. the trick is finding out where the leak is.
compressor clutch. hey! it might be the cheapest repair.
fuse.
heh heh.
